I saw this gem the other day on one of my favorite daily blog reads (uniwatchblog.com). It is a scanned image of a 1969 college football postcard set produced by a Texas based artist . I am not sure which mascot character I like best: the brain surgeon Sparty or the brooding Hoosier with the straw in his mouth. Also, you have to admit the buckeye head looks a lot like something that Mascot Man made in an unreleased video.

No you were the Ewoks, Purdue was Biff from Back to the future, Illinois was Steven Tyler, Indiana was Jerry Van Dyke from Coach, and Northwestern was the Gremlins. Not sure what OSU was in 1969 - oh yeah, in January they were National Champs.
